LongfellowSerenade 65
Randy Roth (born December 26, 1954) is a convicted murderer and thief from Washington. He was convicted of the 1991 murder of his fourth wife, Cynthia Baumgartner Roth and he was suspected of murdering his second wife, Janis Roth, in 1981 but was never tried. In both deaths, he was the only witness. He claimed the activities that led to the deaths were the ideas of his deceased wives (“romantic” notions in both cases) and he had the bodies cremated as quickly as could be arranged. He was also convicted of stealing in the form of defrauding insurers and the Social Security Administration. He was sentenced to one year for theft and 50 years for first degree murder in 1992. At least two true crime books are based on Roth's crimes, A Rose for Her Grave by Ann Rule and Fatal Charm by Carlton Smith.1

The
Murders
Roth's wife of less than a year, Cynthia Baumgartner Roth, 34, drowned in Lake Sammamish July 23, 1991. Roth claimed their raft was tipped over by the wake of a passing speed boat and she drowned before he could save her.
Roth's 1992 King County Superior Court trial included evidence about his second wife's fatal plunge off a Skamania County cliff in 1981. The day after her death, Roth called his insurance agent at home to put in a claim.
The jury also heard from Roth's third wife, who said she felt he tried to sink a raft they were taking down a river, and from another woman who testified he was planning to marry her until he found out she was uninsurable.
The appeals court found that the 1981 death and Roth's history of cheating insurance companies were relevant to the 1992 murder case because they showed a pattern, including death after obtaining large insurance policies.1

HOLLY ANN HARVEY | Holly Harvey and Sandra Ketchum: 'Kill, Keys, Money and Jewelry' | 15-year-old, sentenced to two life sentences in prison after pleading guilty to two counts of malice murder | LOT of 2 ALS
Outwardly everything seemed normal, but apparently Holly, who'd been
using drugs and having difficulties at school, was suffering
miserably inside her grandparent's house. At the center of Holly's
troubles was her 16-year-old lesbian lover, Sandra Ketchum. In a
poem, Holly describes how depressed she'd been and how she constantly
cried herself to sleep because the Colliers had ordered her to stop
seeing Sandy Ketchum and insisted she stop using drugs. Holly's poem
also contained the words...
